After petty criminal Johnny (Damon Wayans) falls for the lovely Amber (Stacey Dash), he decides to stop breaking the law and gets a gig at his crush's workplace in order to get closer to her, thus proving that he's a stand-up guy. Soon, he learns that going straight doesn't pay very well, so he decides to nab a company credit card and show off his newfound wealth to Amber. Unfortunately, a blackmailer catches Johnny and forces him to commit a crime that is far from small.

Critics Consensus

Mo' Money only comes with mo' problems in this comedically bankrupt outing from the Wayans brothers.

Damon Wayans and his younger brother Marlon make a terrific comedy team in Mo' Money.

Damon and Marlon are at their best in the opening comic sequences, which allow their chemistry to operate, but their pacing is disrupted by the ensuing formulaic thrills.

3/5

Some of the humor in Mo' Money has a mean-spirited edge. And only in isolated moments is it as funny as its own title.

Silly and predictable, Mo' Money still manages to direct some well-aimed barbs at the idiosyncrasies and hypocrisies of mainstream America.

While the screenplay weaves in a number of neatly drawn characters, MacDonald's direction fails to give the film an overall coherency.

It's a shame. A low down dirty shame. Or maybe I'm thinking of another Wayans family member.
